Keyless Lock

Does anybody know if there is a keyless lock available yet that would work for a 2021 3120RL? Thanks!

Is there something special about the 3120 that RV Lock v4 won’t work? We have one ordered to go on our 2021 3230CK.

I have read a few things that make me think they don't work for Montanas. I just wanted to confirm that they work before I go ahead and buy one.

We have had an RV Lock on our last two Montana’s and will be putting one on our new Montana. I think some of the High Country’s had a different door. You will probably hear from others with HC’s. We used to live in Pontiac and have a daughter and her family over in Quincy. Having worked for Big Yellow, I’ve spent a little bit of time in Peoria. Good luck on the new Montana. Some great rallies coming up. CPRR isn’t far from you in July and the National Rally in Goshen in September.

Depends on which door handle you get on your Montana, RVLock has said they don't have one to fit the newer style handle some units are starting to come with. I think its a matter of existing door lock inventory but a few people have had the newer style door handle on theirs and the RVLock won't work on that one.

It will not work with these newer styles and some Montanas are coming with the new the one on the right now.

Chad, are those Montana’s or Montana High Country’s? Since Lippert manufactures the doors and RV Locks, it is unusual for one division to put another out of business.

I believe most have been from the regular line Montanas.

There has been several posts on the Owners group over the last year where they got that new style handle on their 2020/2021 model. My guess would be based on availability/inventory some still got the old handle while some have the new.

I just got a reply from Sam at Keystone. They stopped using that handle last year. So, we are good on the RV Lock.

We have the new verticals style door handle on our 2020. The keyless locks will not work on it. The hole in the door is not close to allowing the keyless lock. I emailed the lock company with a photo of my door handle. They confirmed that their locks will not work on it and that they have no intention of designing one to fit.

It appears they saw the error of those style doors and aren’t using them anymore.

Last time I was on Amazon website they had the locks you are looking for. I would look there and ask them if it would work. Good Luck and Happy Trails

I have a 3120 and installed a keyless entry. There are several available and can be purchased from a Montana dealer or online

I just installed this one; seems to be heavy duty.

Check out the web sites for any of the locks; they will have clear instructions and pictures on which doors they will fit.

Question

This topic is new to me. What are the reasons people are going with these? Is there an issue with the locks from Montana? I have a 2019 3811MS and adding one of these looks seems like a good idea. Is there a manufacturer/ style/ model anyone would recommend?

A keyless lock is convenient; mine also has two remotes. I don't think they add much security; if someone wants in, neither lock is going to stop them. I've been looking at these for awhile and finally pulled the trigger when my OEM lock broke. Well, it actually broke with help from large tools after I locked the keys in the trailer.
